NAME

	 Buffycli - text mode alternative to Buffy. Monitors new and unread messages in a collection of mail folders.

DESCRIPTION

	 Buffy is a program that displays a compact summary of your mail folders, and allows to invoke a command (usually a mail reader) on them.  It is written with the intent
	 of being a handy everyday tool for people handling large volumes of mail.  For mutt users, this can be a nice	front-end  to  supplement  the	simple	built-in  folder
	 browser when one has many folders to keep track of.

USAGE

	 [#] to launch the mail reader	   q:quit

	 oc[C]:order by column		   scall:show all columns
	 hc[C]:hide column		   sc[C]:show column
	 st: show totals row		   ht: hide totals row

	 sf[#[,#,#]]:always show folder(s) hf[#],#,#,#]]:always hide folder(s)
	 sfall:show all folders with mail  usage:toggle and save usage display

	 si[#]: set the mail folder poll interval in seconds
	 oi:run offlineimap -o in the foreground
	 oibg:run offlineimap in the background (and attempt to kill it on quit)
	 oikill:kill the background offlineimap process

NAME

       newmail - notify users of new mail in mailboxes

SYNOPSIS

       interval] [file-spec]...

DESCRIPTION

       The utility monitors your incoming mailbox or specified mail folders.

       The  basic  operation  is that the program checks the folders each interval seconds (default 60) and lists any new mail that has arrived in
       any of the mailboxes, indicating the sender's name, and the subject of the message.

       Without any options, runs in the background at a default interval of 60 seconds to monitor the user's incoming mailbox.	So that  they  are
       suitable for display on an already active screen, messages are prefixed with a pair of pointer characters as follows:

       If  there  is  no subject, the message is displayed.  If there is more than one folder, output lines are prefixed by the folder-name or the
       prefix string specified by file-spec.

       runs until you log out or explicitly kill it.  It can internally reset itself if the mailbox shrinks in size and then grows again.

   Options
       recognizes the following options:

	      Set the time interval between mailbox checks
			     to the value specified, in seconds.  The default is 60.

			     interval must be less than 2^32 seconds.  If it is set to less than 10 seconds, warns that such short  intervals  are
			     not recommended.

	      Run the program within the current window in the foreground
			     with a more succinct output format.

			     The output formats become:

   Operands
       recognizes the following operand:

	      file-spec      Specifies the name of a folder and an optional prefix string, in the form:

			     Metacharacters such as and indicate the folder directory.	The default is the value of the environment variable or
